In the matter of: Sahida Bibi …Petitioner

Mr. Brajesh Jha, APP Ms. Piyali Chatterjee Mr. Neel Chakraborty …for the State

1. Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the mother-in-law who has been implicated because of marital dispute between the informant and her son.
2. Learned advocate appearing for the de facto complainant opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.
3. Learned advocate appearing for the State has produced the case diary, referred to the statement of the informant as also the injury report.

4. Having considered the materials appearing in the case diary, I am of the view that although a case for investigation is made out but custodial detention of the present petitioner is unwarranted.
5. Accordingly, prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner, namely, Sahida Bibi is allowed.
6. As such, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner be released on bail by the Investigating Officer/Arresting Officer of the case on such terms and conditions as it deems fit and proper. This would be subject to the conditions under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. and/or under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
7. The petitioner shall make herself available as and when required by the Investigating Officer of the case.
8. With the aforesaid observation, C.R.M. (A) 3050 of 2026 is disposed of.
9. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record.
10. All parties shall act in terms of the server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court.
11. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
